Component System & Frontend Architecture

• Build reusable components using shadcn/ui

• Extend and customize design system components when necessary

• Maintain structured UI patterns across the CRM

• Contribute to scalable folder and module architecture

• Keep UI consistent with Tailwind-based design tokens

Quality & Engineering Discipline

• Write clean, structured TypeScript code

• Ensure proper data fetching patterns, predictable state handling and stable builds

• Maintain accessibility best practices

• Optimize performance in data-heavy pages

Product Collaboration

• Work closely with product managers to refine UX before implementation

• Collaborate with backend engineers to ensure UI accurately reflects business logic

• Gather feedback from internal teams using the CRM

• Proactively suggest UX and structural improvements

Qualifications

• 2–4+ years of experience with React / Next.js

• Strong TypeScript skills

• Comfortable using and extending component libraries (e.g., shadcn/ui)

• Ability to independently translate requirements into clean UI

Nice to have

• Experience in payments, fintech, or subscription systems

• Familiarity with backend APIs and understanding REST contracts

• Experience with design systems or maintaining component libraries

• Strong UI / UX skills

• Understanding of financial UI patterns (tables, filters, analytics views)
